Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
Ratios
Computed from the line items above — sparklines read oldest → newest

- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“Despite the £756,283 loss before tax for the year, and the net liabilities of £4,210,917, the directors have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis. They believe that this basis is appropriate, as a fellow group company, Stance Inc, has indicated to the directors that it is willing to provide support to enable the company to continue to meet its obligations as they fall due for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements.”
Significant events
- “Total revenue was down 5.0%, with much of the decline coming from the decision to exit own door retail with the closure of the Gunwharf store in February 2024.”
- “During 2024 there continued to be fluctuating consumer confidence across Europe with an associated impact on retail spending. Stubbornly high food and fuel prices have persisted, and Interest rate rises have been used to dampen inflation and bring levels down.”
- “Sterling VS USD rates fluctuated during the year with the USD/Sterling exchange opening at 1.27 in January 2024 and closing at 1.25 in December 2024, making stock purchases and repayments more expensive, particularly in the final quarter.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
